A week of sailing, socialising and good times with fellow Spirit owners, crew and guests
When: 25th June – 2nd July 2022
Where: St. Peter Port, Guernsey
Hosted by: Spirit Yachts & Guernsey Yacht Club LBG
In partnership with
The inaugural Spirit Yachts regatta will be held on the beautiful island of Guernsey in the Channel Islands. Designed to offer a balance of competitive racing and relaxed socialising, as well as opportunities to explore the surrounding area, the regatta is set to be a fantastic week on and off the water.
Based at Guernsey Yacht Club, with views of the race area and surrounding islands, the regatta will take place in the heart of St. Peter Port, the capital of Guernsey.
Racing promises to be competitive with yachts battling it out over a six-race series; including a round Guernsey race (weather permitting), a passage race, and a mix of shorter round-the-cans and windward/leeward courses. As much as possible, the starts and finishes will be set in front of Castle Cornet (situated next to the yacht club) to allow spectators to watch the action on the water.
The Spirit Yachts fleet will be berthed in Victoria Marina, in the heart of St Peter Port and a short walk from nearby shops, cafés, bars and restaurants.
The week kicks off with a drinks reception hosted by regatta partner Locate Guernsey at the iconic Castle Cornet. Steeped in history, the 800-year-old castle has spectacular panoramic views over the water.
During the week, guests will have the choice of BBQs, Hattiers Rum tasting, dockside drinks, and a trip across to neighbouring Herm for sunset drinks and dinner. A prize-giving dinner at the prestigious Old Government House hotel will round off the regatta in style.
